Milan Krajniak was a victim of the political crisis in Slovakia

Milan Krajniak sees his resignation as a step towards an early end to the coalition crisis.

Slovak Labor Minister Milan Krajniak of the We Family movement has resigned to resolve the coalition crisis in the country that arose following the approval of the Russian Sputnik V vaccine prior to registration by the pan-European regulator. This was announced on the eve of the television channel TA3.

“I see my resignation as a step towards an early end to the coalition crisis,” Krajniak told a briefing, calling on the president to remove him from office as soon as possible.

According to him, Krajnyak is resigning so that his We are a family party will show that he has no personnel conditions and is willing to sacrifice something to end the political crisis.

The president of the movement We are a family, the president of Parliament, Boris Kollar, supported the decision of the Minister of Labor. He considers that what is happening in the coalition is a circus that interferes with work.

Meanwhile, the resignation of Prime Minister Igor Matovich is required by two of the four parties in the coalition: Libertad y Solidaridad and Por el Pueblo. The head of government is said to have negotiated the supply of the Russian vaccine bypassing the coalition partners.

Previously, Slovak Health Minister Marek Krajci resigned from his post. According to him, two parties made his resignation a condition for remaining in the coalition.

Recall that on March 1, Slovakia bought the first batch of the Russian Sputnik V vaccine. Now the drug is being examined at the European Medicines Agency.
